Chapter 8
Julian
I almost crumbled the phone in my hand when I saw that dress. She had left me all by myself, her home, and everything to start a family and marry the same lame human.
She had stooped so low that she was still trying to seduce him while I had been searching for her all these years.
I threw the phone away before I could crush it into pieces.
“Victor” I yelled as I entered my office. Victor and Michael had been discussing something but they fell silent the moment they heard me.
“I got Anastasia’s number, I need her address, now.”
Michael jumped up at that. “You really found it? How?”
“That does not matter. Knowing her, she will definitely switch it off and get some other number”
Victor grabbed the phone and looked at the dress and the order with our address.
“Are you sure it was her? Why would she use this address after all these years of running away from you?”
The fore questions they asked, the angrier I felt
“How would I know the answer to that? Maybe, she just wanted me to know how she was enjoying her life with her human husband and daughter.”
Even that thought made white hot jealousy rip my heart into shreds. I could not digest the fact that she had discarded me as a piece of used tissue without giving me a chance to make it up to her.
“What? She has a daughter?” Both of my warriors stared at me in disbelief and shock.
The fact that she had let another man touch her and get her pregnant made me mad. I had this intense urge to rip him into shreds for daring to look at my woman.
Victor was looking at the screen on my phone and he muttered after trying to dial it.
“The number is switched off”
I scoffed, “As expected. But I did talk to her and her daughter. It was definitely her voice.”
Victor and Michael exchanged looks before looking at me.
“So what are you going to do?”
“Find her, of course. Go try to trace that number and see what you get. I need the address and everything else you can get. Find whatever human you want to get that information. Money is not an issue.”
The two nodded and left the office promptly as I kept staring at the screen. and I would be the only one to undress her.
I was going to make her wear that dress for me
I could still remember her sweet face, those sexy eyes, and that perfect shape that gave me many sleepless nights. She used to fall asleep in my embrace and I would wake up to her good morning kiss every day.
My body and my wolf were already rejoicing when I reached my room. Memories of all the good times I had shared with Anastasia began flashing in front of my eyes as I slumped on the bed with a soft thud

Angelica bem down while being wrapped only in the towel and began to take off my shoes.
“No, I will do it”
Nou are int just my alpha but my mate too. It is my duty to help you relax after a tiring work day.”
She gave me a small smile as water dripped down her hair. She had tied her towel too low, and honestly, it was too short, Raving little to the imagination.
I looked away as she took off my shoes and socks before getting up and placing her hands on my shoulders.
“Should I give you a small massage?”
I shook my head and grabbed her wrists before pushing them away from me.
“No thanks. I am tired and I want to sleep. You should sleep too,
She batted her eyelashes and replied, “Together? Sounds fun?”
Angelica was acting coy and flirting with me but frankly, I could not imagine myself with her. Not after the fire Anastasia hade ignited inside me just with a simple dress. The thought of imaging her in that dress made me go hard,
“Please Angelica, I had a very tiring day and you don’t want me to get mad at you”
I said before getting up from the bed and away from her
“But why do you keep avoiding me? What is it that I am doing wrong? You keep working late, return when you think I am asleep, and leave before I wake up.”
Angelica grumbled.
When I did not reply, she continued, “I am your fated mate, Julian. We are supposed to be together and you should have put a pup in my belly already. My wolf keeps waiting for you but you never show up. I have to satisfy myself then”
The last line almost made me want to strangle her neck.
“The pack is going downhill. And you have never helped me in any way. I keep getting complaints of how you make everybody iniserable yet I ignore them”
She began to sobs as she came running towards me, grabbing me from the back and placing her hands around my torso.

I grabbed her before she would tall and my hands went around her waist as lier teary eyes went wide. She leaned forward to close the stance between on faces and kiss me but I straightened her and let go of her before she could do such a thing.
Please, Julian Give me a chance to love you,” she said but I tured to her and looked directly into her eyes.
A told you I don’t have feelings for you. You are my fated mate which is the reason you live here with me. But that is all you www gerne om me.”
“Why? Why has it been five years since I am trying to please you but you keep avoiding me? You don’t want to touch your mare. Do you want somebody else instead of me? Or are you still pining over the bitch who abandoned you and moved on?” My hand moved of its own accord as it raised itself and pulled a tight slap on Angelica who was taken aback.
This is the last time I let you talk about Anastasia like that I growled as an imprint of my hand appeared on Angelica’s

“So, my guess was right. She started a family and even had a kid but you still want a cheating and shameless woman instead of the one who has stood loyally beside you for five years.”
1 grabbed her neck and my fingers dug deep into her throat, making her shed fresh tears.
“How do you know that? Were you eavesdropping earlier?”
I saw her eyes flare and her struggle to come up with an answer
“Look, Angelica. I am tolerating you because your father helped us a great deal when things started to go downhill. It was his condition to let you stay which 1 honored. But that does not mean you cross your limits.”
“S–sorry, I was just trying to understand.”
But I cut her off, “I said you have no r
right to comment on her and if you value your life, you will never make the same mistake again
She was beginning to choke and pant for breath so I released her from my grip.
At the same time, I got a call from Victor, “We found her”
A smile crept up my lips. Now, I was going to get everything back, starting with
stasia.
